Common Components

SupplementalEquipment class, an entity can identify specific type of equipment and quantity available; this can include electric charging stations, bike storage, etc. Additional details for specific equipment can be further defined in future revisions of the specification. The data model currently includes a data class for ElectricChargingPoints which allows for more detail to be provided for one to many charging stations. The SupplementalServiceFacility class similarly allows a Place to identify various services available in the IdentifiedArea. Services include restroom, shower, food store, and many other services.

CommonComponents represent a collection of common attribution that may be applied at several points in the Place hierarchy.

CommonComponents provides optional support for a range of attribution including contacts (which includes addresses), opening times (operating times, entrance opening times, exit opening times) [defined in the <PkCommon> namespace], marketing content references, payment methods, operating restrictions, colour association (where parking facility elements are colour coded) and characteristics (such as operating mode, type of the parking structure, disabled parking characteristics, access control, etc.).
